After several attempts at cutting the bread, however, the youngest member of the boy band decided to find tips online only to be interrupted by his mother calling him on the phone. He quickly hung up, fanned away his embarrassment, and spent over 10 minutes quietly preparing the bread.

Peeking at online tutorial between stages, I.N built up a house using peanut butter spread, food decorating pens and wafer cookies step by step, proudly sharing each small feat with his fans and checking the messages inbetween. “Wow, these look so yummy,” he said deciding on a bar of chocolate to use as windows. He even gained speed and confidence enough to turn on songs as background music and hummed along. After finishing the project, he was all smiles but his fans were worried about him having to clean up afterwards to which he reassured “Don’t worry, I can do it!”

“I’ve been off the grid for close to three months after the concerts at the end of last year. I wanted to let you know, though, that I am okay through the channel,” said the veteran singer.

Assuring fans who expressed concerns not to overdo himself while cooking -- “I know I have failed a couple of times before but today’s menu is foolproof” -- Shin got busy making soybean paste stew with shepherd’s purse and spicy steamed red shell.

He fluttered about the kitchen, however, murmuring that he might not be a camera friendly person despite his 20-year career. “I really want you to know that I am a good cook when I’m alone,” chuckled Shin.

The singer did finish cooking and enjoyed his “this is spring” meal before finally moving on to the Q&A session.

Starting off with funny moves and a seemingly random pick of props, the four members appeared in front of the camera and sat down to answer questions posted by their fans about “White Wind,” set to be released later today.

“I was wearing such colorful hairpin and the sweat. It was super comfortable,” said Sola to a fan asking about the new style seen at their music video. When asked to comment about the new album, Hwasa said “this was another challenge for us. The dance for title song “Gogobebe” especially was a new take.” They usually had their say in choreography before, agreed the girl group. The youngest member indulged a fan’s request showing the point moves from the title song.

They all playful and jokey as usual, but also showed their serious sides talking about making of the album and Whee In’s recent collaboration with DinDin.
